Kia Winterization Tips from Willowbrook Kia

The temperatures are already starting to drop in Willowbrook, and many areas of the country see snow. This is a great time for you to make an appointment with Willowbrook Kia” s service center so you can have your Kia winterized for the long season ahead. The winter is a much more difficult time of year for your vehicle than summer or spring. The cold temperatures and the precipitation that we experience can do a number on your vehicle’s quality. Luckily, some simple tips can help you protect your vehicle.

Switch to a Winter Set of Tires

Winter tires can be installed on your Kia to provide you with a better grip on the roads of Naperville. You’ll be happy you invested in a set when the roads are covered in patches of ice and snow. You can change back to an all-season variety when spring arrives.

Tire Inspection

If you already have a set of winter tires or you have the all-season variety that you’ll be keeping on your Kia, we’ll inspect your tires to ensure that they’re going to perform properly over the winter months in Chicago and Bollingbrook.

We’ll check tire tread levels, we’ll look for even wear patterns, and we’ll keep an eye out for bulges or cracking that would indicate your tires are getting too old. We’ll also check air pressure levels.

Checking the Condition of Your Battery

To rely on your Kia each morning in the Downer’s Grove winter, your battery should be inspected and serviced as needed. We’ll make sure that your battery can charge and hold that charge and that it doesn’t need to be repaired somehow.
